    One of the best games I played period. And the best modern Final Fantasy game. It took me 60 hours to finish the game and I have 10% remain of side missions and items to collect.
    I can't wait to continue the story of FFVII and it's beautiful universe. Thank you Square Enix.

    I think anyone who didn't like the ending is jumping the gun. We all expected a 1:1 Remake and I completely understand anyone's frustration or anger with the way this game subverted expectations. I am a fan of FF7 who played the original when it came out, and so I think everyone's feelings are valid and understandable. I was initially angry at the ending too.

We all expected a 1:1 Remake and I completely understand anyone's frustration or anger with the way this game subverted expectations. I am a fan of FF7 who played the original when it came out, and so I think everyone's feelings are valid and understandable. I was initially angry at the ending too.

    That being said, I ask that you keep an open mind and think critically about the ending and all of the times the "whispers" showed up throughout the game. We don't have any idea what will happen, but the theories and prospects are very exciting. I don't want to spoil anything, but I will say that I don't think you should take the ending at face value. Both Aerith and Sephiroth seem to know more than they let on. Don't write this game off just yet. Let's wait until the next installment and see where the story goes.

    Apart from the story, I think the game was absolutely fantastic. The battle system was a nice blend of old and new. I really believe this may be the best implementation of a turn-based/action hybrid I've ever seen. The materia system works very similarly to how it worked in the original, and it was a blast leveling up the weapons and abilities.

    The graphics are absolutely breathtaking. I still can't believe they pulled this off on a PS4. The characters are all modeled immaculately, and the skybox is pre-rendered and so, so beautiful.

    The voice acting is spot on, the characters all act how I imagined they would act, and there isn't so much awkwardness like in Final Fantasy XV. You can tell Square went the extra mile to make this game appeal to Western fans. I don't know that there has been a better English voice cast for a Japanese game.

    As for negatives, the majority of my negatives are nitpicks.

    The game feels extremely padded in parts. They took what was essentially a 4-8 hour experience from the original and made it a 30-40 hour journey. While some of the new content is awesome, some of it misses the mark and feels like it's trying to waste your time.

    Also, the game is fairly linear. I don't know that it ever reaches Final Fantasy XIII "Hallway Simulator" levels, but it straddles the line pretty hard. With that being said, Midgar was always really linear in the original, so in that respect, this game is more "open" than the original.

    Finally, I want to talk about the extreme level of pop-in and the bafflingly low quality textures in the game. In chapter 3, which is one of the more "open" chapters of the game, characters can be seen popping in left and right if you run. The low quality textures are really strange, especially compared to how detailed and nearly perfect the character models are. One good example is the door to Tifa's room in chapter 3. It's so low quality that I can't believe they didn't notice. I really think it's a PS4 memory issue and this will be fixed next year when the game releases on PC and the next gen consoles. Until then, we will have to live with the low quality doors. It's not that bad, and it doesn't really affect the whole game, but when you see it, it stands out like a sore thumb.

    All in all, I had a blast with the game and I think it is well worth your time whether you are a new fan or old. The future is scary and exhilarating, but have faith and patience and go discuss your theories with other fans! Try to keep an open mind and respect the opinions of others.    … Expand

Not only did Square Enix painstakingly recreate Midgar and Final Fantasy VII from the ground up in a brand new engine, but the fact that they care and love the series absolutely shows. From the amazing graphical quality to the smooth combat, it’s absolutely evident that a lot of time and effort went into the game polishing it to near perfection.

    While some are slamming the game because it “only” covers the Midgar portion of FFVII, they’ve added so much content within Midgar that it’s still a full length game. Seeing that the original on PSOne was 3 CDs, putting the game around 2,4gb back in 1997, that’s massive. It only makes sense that the new game would have to be broken up as well. Square has soured gamers that each game will be a full games worth of content, they’ve also stated that the second installment won’t take anywhere near as long as the first, due to all the assets not having to be remade and the engine already being done.

    The wait was worth it and the game is everything I hoped it would be, and more. If you are, in any way, a Final Fantasy fan, and especially a Final Fantasy VII fan, I promise that you absolutely will not be disappointed. Play the demo first if you want to get a feel for it, the demo is an amazing representation of the full game, with some things not included for obvious reasons.

    Buy the game, you will not regret it one bit if you are any sort of a fan of Square or FF games.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is NOT FF7. It's a game LOADED with pointless fetch quests to stretch out the game to justify releasing in multiple parts. The story has been completely changed (to the point that it is a completely different game). The battle system is the only thing that's fun, but you only control one character and the AI on the computer controlled characters in your party is completely broken. You can't give them commands until their ATB is full, but they just stand there and don't do anything to build their ATB. So it's basically a one person party the entire game because the other two members are nearly useless.

    The people giving this game a positive score just bought into the hype. It's loaded with fetch quests, has a completely different plot and story (I can't understate this), the computer AI on your party members is broken, and the only thing that's done well are the story parts kept in from the original (which constitutes less than 5% of the the playtime of the remake. the rest is new and added in and/or pointless fetch quests).

    The time travel twist completely makes this a different story. I am cool with added backstories and tweaking the existing story here and there. And the parts they did that were well done. But then they took a sledgehammer to the story with the ending. This is not what ANYONE wanted when fans were begging for a remake for a decade.

    The original FF7 is my favorite game of all time. I was disappointed when I heard the changes that were made to the game during development, and that they were dividing it into multiple games. But I still saw the great scores the game was given, and got excited and gave it a chance. I've never been more disappointed. What I played was way worse than even my worst fear..    … Expand

    A beautiful recreation of Midgar with welcome expansion of some key characters from the original and a solid combat system, held back by some design/ technical issues and creative choices that for some original fans may be more of a meteor crater than a dent in an otherwise solid game.

Models are rendered    A beautiful recreation of Midgar with welcome expansion of some key characters from the original and a solid combat system, held back by some design/ technical issues and creative choices that for some original fans may be more of a meteor crater than a dent in an otherwise solid game.

    In depth below:
    Graphics:
    The game is absolutely visually stunning to look at. Models are rendered amazingly and the Midgar looks phenomenal - with wall market being a personal visual highlight.
    Unfortunately as reported, there were frequent instances were textures appear low quality or “pop” in - certainly enough to warrant this games not being 10/10 in the graphics department which is a shame.

    Story:
    I’m not a diehard fan of ff7 so I can’t speak too much of faithfulness to the original but I think there were some excellent expansions on some of the key casts stories and motivations that I think fans will welcome and enjoy for most of their ride through FFVII: R. This is not to say it is perfect and are certainly some key creative decisions that when looked at objectively do feel rushed, out of place, and not fitting of the first instalment of this remake.

    Gameplay:
    Combat was a fun blend of action hack and slash with use of the ATB gauge to use items, materia and other weapon abilities. Other party members have unique combat styles that are fun to master and it felt like a breeze to switch between characters or issue commands.

    My main criticism with the Combat lay with normal mode, in which didn’t feel tougher but rather that enemies felt very padded - especially boss battle encounters to which abilities didn’t feel impactful and the stagger gauge, a returning gameplay mechanic from FFXIII, seemed incredibly slow to fill for little payback. Even the summons, which can be called upon during specific fights and fight alongside the party for a short spell, didn’t feel like they made as much of an impact. On easy mode it does seem to remove the extra padding making combat feel a little more satisfying.

    The side quests are pretty cookie cutter “NPCs first fetch quest“, but there are some fun mini games thrown in to mix things up. Music:
    I absolutely loved the soundtrack of this game. They made some original tracks feel part of the world with modern takes on the older melodies and it felt like the score had plenty of range while hitting the nostalgia notes when it needed to.

    In conclusion:
    All in all a great game that has had a loving amount of detail poured into the world befitting of the long development cycle. Creative choices from a story standpoint have the biggest impact on the score and I can see OG fans rating this much much lower as a result. But for me, the love and care gone into everything else that has gone into this game means it can salvage a much higher result.

    7/10 - thanks for coming to my ted talk.    … Expand

    Teenage angst, combat camera angles, antiquated rpg fetching and memories of times past.

    Final fantasy 7 the remake 2020, places players back in a world full of 1990s ideal cyberpunk musk.

    The character development in this game is better in content than it’s decades old source, but the delivery of those scenes is either breathtaking in story quests, or lazily robotic during side quests. Whenever the player is talking to one npc as the camera shifts from person to person, takes you right out of the mood of the scenes. The story is can be delivered in blockbuster fashion, or a sci-fi channel B movies.

    The combat itself is new and adaptive to modern JRPGs with the new command system, but the camera control and angles are distinctly early 2000s, especially when in doors fighting enemies. If launched more spells at columns and walls than I care to admit. Maybe cloud just hates walls? Maybe the developers are trying to show me how good the textures are on the walls. Will you enjoy ff7 remake? Probably, but how much depends how strong your love for the original game with foggy nostalgia glasses.

So, taking that into effect, we cannot blast Square for this, storyline wise, until we have the complete package in hand.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake is the game we've been waiting for from Square Enix for so long. Atmospheric, interesting and exciting all your attention modern jRPG with an interesting story and spectacular battles. To achieve the ideal, the project only needs more even graphics and all the content from the original release. If you were waiting for a turn-based classic with new graphics you will most likely be disappointed, since the game has changed a lot. Everyone else is happy with the release of the first really powerful single-player release from the internal Square Enix studio for many years. Especially after the failure of Final Fantasy XV.

    A good remake of the introductory part of the cult-favorite Final Fantasy VII. It improves on the original game in almost all aspects, yet lacks in scale and drops the ball at the very end.

    What matters is still intact, and that’s the heart and soul of one of the greatest stories in video game history. It’s a return to form that has felt a long time in coming, and what’s even better is that there’s still at least two more games of this quality to come...They can’t mess this up, can they?
